I've already acknowledged that this was inexplicable?
I totally understand the bewilderment over that, & I was similarly irritated by it then, & afterward.
Still....
This was not a deal breaker for me.
I was irritated with his response!
It was NOT a baseball TEAM response!
You always have your guy's back, & you NEVER throw your boys under the bus!
He blew it there! No doubt about it!
I'm still perplexed, & it made no sense.
I have to guess there was something I'm not totally getting there, but nonetheless, it was not right.
As I recall, there was major team chaos at that time?
I may be off, but there were several shitstorms swirling?
My other points still stand?
He is, & always will be, a great RS dirtdog!

Calm down. I've been tamed.
Dustin Pedroia, Team Leader, Great Teammate
Dustin Pedroia walked in, Boston Red Sox team meeting room went quiet; ‘That’s the epitome of how much everybody respects him’

Let's look at this from humane perspective....
He needs to just stay home, take care of his family, cash the paychecks....his well being is more important but he needs to understand that...quit being selfish...think about the wife and the kids....I'm pretty sure they don't want to see him suffer with another setback which is bound to happen....

We are probably looking at 9 games played over 4+ seasons for $56 million. I hate guaranteed contracts. They should have moved on from him 2 years ago.
